The church of Jesus Christ exists in and for the world. Under the discipline of the Holy Spirit, we exist for worship (we celebrate), the edification of believers (we thrive), and the redemption of the world (we engage). At Good Sam all are welcomed and valued, and all gifts are affirmed. We rejoice when new people join our community - we journey together in faith!

Red Cross Blood Drive was a Success!

It was a great time, and Good Sam UMC collected 39 pints of blood, exceeding our goal of 30 pints! Way to go Babiasz Small Group! They hosted the blood drive, and the bone marrow checks. Thanks be to God!

We are a church in the Wesleyan tradition that "thinks and let thinks"... In the words of John Wesley: "In essentials, unity. In non-essentials, liberty. All things charity." We seek to be steadfast in loving acts, day by day, so that we can use our gifts to serve God in love. As a church named after Jesus' story of the Good Samaritan, we are called to cross boundaries with grace. We are a church that believes in separation of church and hate. To understand how different we are as a church, amidst other parts of Christian popular culture, you need to come and see.
